This is going to be badass! Giving off some ROR vibes for sure. 1 - I was a little kid (somewhere around 7/8?) and my dad took me to see the mickey thompson off road grand prix at the LA coliseum. I think it was in 1990 or 1991? I remember asking my dad if we could do that with his 1982 Datsun...

^ kids already faster than Ill ever be, and with a cooler ride too...

228.1 ... I'll be in San Felipe this coming weekend for the 250 so Ill be a few days late for next weeks weigh-in, but the tacos and cervezas are calling my name and next weeks weigh-in isnt looking good already.

I saw a dude running 8" SAW C/Os on a gen 1 kit. IIRC he moved the shock mount as far forward on the arms as he could and ran longer rod ends too (for axle clearance). But its been 10+ yrs since Ive seen that truck, so I could be remembering wrong. That said, I went from a Gen1 caddy kit to...

TH-this, 4L-that... when are you going to start building REAL transmissions, like the Toyota A340?

Im still here. For whatever reason I cant seem to get my shit together to really buckle down. Just got on the scale and Im sitting at 229.5lbs... what a chunk of iron!

A day late to the party, but todays scale digits were less than ideal. I blame the long weekend in san felipe eating tacos like a starving ethiopian. 231.1 lbs - I am ashamed.

Yes (to both). Was pretty sedentary last week and definitely couldve ate a little cleaner. Seems like lately everyone wants to go out to dinner to celebrate *something* so theres been A LOT of restaurant meals. Still trying to eat decently at the restaurants, but sometimes its a challenge. (I...

230.2! Im going the wrong way for sure...

I had a slight setback in my weight loss journey. Put me down for 227.1 lbs

4) A-beam swap it and run an IBP C/O.

You ever seen those videos on IG where they use superglue and crushed-up ramen noodles to fix dents and rust holes? We should try to see if that actually works or not...

Sounds like a good job for 'GeeGee and sons autobody' out of winchester Ca! I did some hideous cutting and bondo work 25 yrs ago on an old ranger that I had. Was a fun project and slight learning experience. The good news is that the materials were fairly inexpensive, it was just more...
